    Default NJ CLASSIC XXX: Now With PICS! (page 5)

    It's not triple-X rated, nor is it really even the 30th event (we probably passed 30 long ago) but it SOUNDS cool and since it's the first one we've done here in awhile it deserves a cool number like XXX. YEAH... TRIPLE F'ING X. It may not have worked for Vin Diesel but you gotta admit, that sounds cool.

    For those of you who are new to this event, NJ Classic is a video game playin', competin', tradin' and drinkin' party hosted at Digital Press HQ (PM or email me for directions). Practically every wing of HQ is opened up for these events, from the library where you can play MAME-emulated arcade games and dazzle the masses with your Samba de Amigo skills, to the main screening area where four-player head-to-head competition runs wild, to the "back room" where some of the greatest trades of the past decade have occurred. For pictures from past events, check HERE or HERE or even HERE.

    At "triple x" we'll also have the main floor lounge area open where by request of a regular guest the Atari 5200 will be set up. Get a look at "Bristles", the latest release for this classic system.

    There are also freebies aplenty. Make a dent in our stash as we clear space to hunker down for the long winter ahead! Everything from games to consoles to memorabilia here for the taking.

    Attendance is free though we encourage guests to bring whatever they like to drink and snack on. We've always got a full fridge and pantry however, so come with just your game face, if you've got one.

    WHERE? Digital Press HQ (PM or e-mail me for directions)
    WHEN? Saturday, October 23rd
    TIME? 3:00pm until "whenever"
    RSVP? Appreciated, by October 16th


    With the big show season finally over, it's time to enjoy some old-school gamer get-togethers. You know, the kind where people actually get to sit down and enjoy each others' company! Be here for this one before it's TOO LATE!

    See you all on the 23rd. GAME ON!

    350 miles is a bit much for me, I SHOULD try and make it down there one of these times though

    Only 350 miles? Add another zero to that number and you'll see my dilemma.

    I would so like to go to one of these things one day.

    Hey, I'll hitch a ride if you want to stop and pick me up. One driver just doesn't cut it though.

    Bummer, it's the same day as CCAG and I've already got plans set to go to that.

    Oh well, maybe one of these years.

    Looks like about 1500 for me, according to Mapquest.

    The disadvantage of a "global Internet" is realized when figuring out how many hours it would take to drive from Oklahoma to New Jersey. :/

    Tempting... I'm about 215 miles from there. That's not too bad, especially if a certain mr Ninja were to tag along with me and Ryan... Ahem.

    WOW, quite a deluge of PM's waiting for me this morning. Hopefully I got back to everyone. Looks like we'll have lots of first-timers at this event!

    I am sensing great trades and new gaming rivalries formed on October 23rd...
